AI-BoM is becoming a bigger discussion topic and we wanted to use @rootconf with specific focus on AI to create a space to have that discussion. I will be facilitating the BOF along with @viveksahu_26 Details : hasgeek.com/rootconf/2026/su… - AIBoM is a compliance requirement - AIBoM is also a technical control that can help us with inventory - and many more other usecases. However as much as its prospects are, there is more confusion then clarity around this. Much of it comes from contrasting details. so this BoF hopes to bring people together to discuss and identify common interests and allow like minded folks a space to keep exploring.

1/4 AI can shorten infrastructure work. How do you check the result? Two Rootconf talks connect Kubernetes upgrade preparation with incident investigation: Adithya Parthasarthy from @bookingcom and Hemant Kumar from @One2NC

3/4 Hemant Kumar’s team saw HolmesGPT identify 21/21 root causes in their initial tests. With SREGym’s decoys and noise: 8–10/21. “Benchmarking AI SRE agents before they touch production” examines diagnosis quality, context and investigation costs.

4/4 What should AI handle? What needs deterministic checks? Where does human review belong? Compare approaches at Rootconf, 20–21 November. TERI, Domlur, Bengaluru + livestream. Explore: has.gy/4IIz

1/4 An agent that works in a demo still needs a platform that works under load. At Rootconf 2026, @phonepe and @razorpay share two perspectives: scaling AI-assisted code review, and operating long-running agents across tenants. 🧵

3/4 An empty queue. Around 100 agent runs still working. An autoscaler that cut them off. @CNikhilesh, Staff AI Engineer at @Razorpay, shares what broke while scaling Slash, and the changes to isolation, sandboxing and compute that followed.

4/4 What connects both these ideas? The engineering around the agent: orchestration, workload isolation and the decisions that make it dependable. Rootconf · 20–21 November TERI, Domlur, Bengaluru + livestream Programme: has.gy/4IIz

1/5 Where is your GPU time going? A training run repeatedly processes only a tenth of its dataset. A long-context inference step spends its time moving data. Two ideas/projects at @rootconf examine what happens when you measure the work your system actually does. 🧵

2/5 48 GPU hours. Just 10% of the intended data. Alosh Denny traces an LLM training run through shared-state failures and missing checkpoints, and shares the checks he now runs before committing compute. What would tell you that a running job is doing the wrong work?

been doing a lot of database performance work (I’m having so much fun!) and I keep coming back to this blog from planetscale about benchmarking, such excellent tips all in one place! planetscale.com/blog/on-benc…

On benchmarking — PlanetScale

Benchmarking is hard. Done wrong it is very misleading, and unfortunately it is frequently done wrong. Let's explore how not to make silly mistakes.
